Alzheimer's Research UK
We will work together to highlight the benefits of garden living for brain health, raising funds to find a cure for dementia.
Almost one million people in the UK are living with dementia today. If nothing changes, one in two of us will be directly affected by dementia – either by developing the condition themselves, caring for someone with it, or both.
Alzheimer’s Research UK exists to change that. As the UK’s leading dementia research charity, it works to revolutionise the way dementia is treated, diagnosed and prevented. And then, to find a way to cure it.
Think Brain Health
Dobbies is supporting Alzheimer Research UK’s Think Brain Health campaign to inspire people to keep their brain healthy through gardening and garden living.
Alzheimer’s Research UK’s Think Brain Health campaign aims to educate people about the steps they can take to look after their brains and help reduce the risk of dementia. The campaign is focused on three simple rules – love your heart, stay sharp and keep connected.
Gardening is a great way to look after our brain health. Physical activity, learning new skills and keeping connected with others are just some of the things we can do to help reduce our risk of dementia.
